Health and fitness writer Holly Roberts writes Detroit has become a “girlfriends getaway” destination because of its renewed downtown and plentiful art-themed attractions.

“Detroit has worked hard to shed its image as a city on the decline, and thanks to some smart city planning and a gig hosting the 2006 Super Bowl, the Motor City is slowly but surely making a comeback as a destination city,” Roberts says. “With more affordable hotel rooms than other urban centers--especially on weekends, when the business visitors clear out--and a revitalized downtown, Detroit makes a surprisingly cool destination for your next girlfriends' getaway.”
